Knitting Again

After much grumbling about not knowing what to knit, I finally figured something out. I'm making the Lion Bunny Blanket Buddy. It's being knit from a basic jeweltone blue variegate acrylic worsted, but it's still coming out quite lovely. I'm already done with the arms, it should be pretty much complete today. I just need to get something to fill the head with. I think I'll make a few of these up - they're really quick and easy!

It's the perfect side-project for my next MAJOR project - Icarus. I should be getting the yarn and pattern for Icarus next week. Yay! April is sending it out on Friday.

I also ordered yarn from Artsygal. I got 1 1/2 skeins of the Moody Blue. No, Artsy does not typically sell by the 1/2 skein (before you ask). Mel and I ordered together and are splitting one skein. So we can make the Peacock Shawl. This is a happy thing.

And once I have shawl-age done, I'm gonna make the flaming skirt. More on that later.

But I have a screaming boy at my feet, and a raging headache and other nasty female things going on, so I'll post more info when I feel like a human again.

Snow Day

This is what I woke up to this morning. I took all these pictures from my porch. I love the way the snow sits on the trees. It's slowly dropping off, because the weather is starting to warm up. But we have another snow day, so the kids are home. I was gonna do some housecleaning, but decided I'd rather not fight today. So they're relaxing, and I'm knitting. More posts forthcoming!

Move Along

I haven't knit much lately, but I did re-build my computer! It actually runs smoothly now. Hopefully I'll be back today with something more. I did get a package from someone that I will be showing off this afternoon!
